I knew it had been awhile since my blog had been active and I felt this was the right event for a relaunch. What I literally did not realize until now is that the day I am writing this is exactly seven … Continue reading My ordination…a sacred night
For many, the idea of Monday coming is downright depressing. It indicates the ending of their relaxing weekend (assuming they work a M-F type of job). Or, depending on how your job schedule works, your "Monday" might fall on another day of the week. Either way, there's this stigma that's improperly placed on the first … Continue reading Monday Hurrahs…not Monday Blahs!

I used to pour through countless traditionally printed books (which, I do miss), but the past several months I've moved over to eBooks using the new NookCOLOR. I love it!

Most people still carried actual dollar bills and change (the little round things with president's heads on them). Many times, you had the "change" needed on you for a particular transaction. Change … Continue reading Loose Change: Is It Worth It?
God spoke: "Earth, green up! Grow all varieties of seed-bearing plants, Every sort of fruit-bearing tree." And there it was. Earth produced green seed-bearing plants, all varieties, And fruit-bearing trees of all sorts. God saw that it was good. God spoke: "Swarm, Ocean, with fish and all sea life!
